BACKGROUND

1. Field of Invention

A bottle carrying trousers comprising a permanently attached bottle retaining element with a means of gripping and retaining a beverage bottle; wherein said element's properties are preferrably flexible; and wherein said bottle is held adjacent to an exterior surface of said trousers, and wherein said means is concealable from another human's view when not in use, and wherein said means is generally undetectable by feelings and touch sensories of a human user's skin.

2. Description of Prior Art

Previous items used to attach a plastic beverage bottle to a human user's trouser pants, or any other part of a user's clothing, were formed from hard plastics, metal clips, nylon straps, flexible rubber o-rings, or various flexible plastic substrates. All were devised to retainingly grip a plastic bottle in an area located just vertically beneath its cap stop rim. All previous methods required separate storage from a user's clothing when not in use; as most were bulky in size or shape, and were mostly cumbersome to carry conveniently in a pocket.

Those found which would fit into a pocket were also able to fall out of the same pocket, or were able to be misplaced or forgotten by the user.

None of those searched were found to include a bottle neck retaining means which was permanently affixed to and/or within a trouser pants material itself for a user's constant availability of use of said means;

None of those searched were found to include a bottle neck retaining means which was permanently affixed within a trouser pants material's placket and/or pocket's waistband area for quick and easy concealment by the user.

None of those searched were found to include a bottle neck retaining means which was devised to be permanently attached to a user's pants at a time of manufacturing of said pants; nor were any found to include a bottle neck retaining means which was devised to be permanently attached to said pants material for post-manufacturing and/or retrofitting an entire line of a slow selling trouser.

None of those searched were found to provide a trouser's permanently attached bottle neck retaining means which were purposed to be permanently affixed to said trousers in a method which is mostly undetectable to a user's skin sensories.

Said bottle is shown being retained in an area     of said trousers which is near to said pocket's placket-like     opening, and adjacent to an exterior surface of said trousers.

Operation

A bottle carrying trousers as in FIG. 1 can be made by permanently affixing a bottle neck gripping device to an interior surface of at least one of said trouser's pockets 30 at a location shown, and via a type of tensioned fastener 64. In this embodiment of FIG. 1, a specific rivet type of tensioned fastener 64 is used; and wherein said rivet extends completely through an affixment accommodating aperture 47, and completely through said trouser's material.

Said bottle neck gripping device is preferably made from a flexible polymer plastic substrate 42 with soft rubber-like properties, yet of a type which has at least some degree of memory retension; and with said retension at least being located in an area surrounding its bottle neck gripping aperture 46.

This particular bottle neck gripping device as in FIG. 1 is of a shape which is a generally planar and elongate flexible polymer plastic material which can be repeatedly bent without fracturing. Low density polyethylene or LDPE is preferred, yet other materials will also work as well; such as a high density polyethylene, a polyurethane, or polypropylene, or polymer plastic saturated cloth, or rubberized impregnated cloth. Thickness of material chosen can range from a few thousandths of an inch to whatever said thickness functions well in gripping a bottle's neck, and whatever fits comfortably within a user's pocket.

A plurality of said material's properties such as said thickness, and said type of polymer plastic, said degree of memory retention, and a material's elasticity, and a material's hardness, and a bottle's 56 dimensional diameter located just below its cap stop rim 58, and said rim's dimensional diameter itself; will all combine to determine an appropriate diameter size needed for said aperture 46 to easily be applied and yet retainingly grip a bottle's neck just vertically below said rim 58.

A manufacturer needs only to balance a degree of ease or difficulty of a user's application and removal of said bottle gripping device to and from said bottle, versus an ability of an area surrounding said aperture 46 to grip and retain said bottle. Said balancing also applies to most alternative embodiments, such as those which may use a rubber-like o-ring, or said plasticized cloth, or a rubber-like sheet material, or most any other substrate which has at least some degree of memory retension surrounding said aperture 46. Said balancing is accomplished through said manufacturer predeterminedly using a chosen dimensional interior size of said aperture; and accordingly to said substrate's said degree of retained memory surrounding said aperture 46.

-   said aperture to attain said

Said aperture 46 shown in FIG. 1 is circular in shape; yet is not necessary to be circular or any other particular shape to functionally grip said bottle's neck; wherein a manufacturer needs only to be concerned with said aperture gripping and retaining said bottle in said area just vertically below said cap stop rim 58, and said balancing between said gripping ability and said ease of application to and from said bottle 56.

Said bottle gripping aperture 46 as shown in FIG. 1 is located near one elongate end of said generally planar and elongate flexible polymer plastic material 42. Said affixment accommodating aperture 47 for accomodating said rivet type tensioned fastener 64 is located at an opposite end of said elongate material from said bottle gipping aperture's 46 location. Said aperture 47 is referenced as an affixment accommodating aperture 47 for clarity purpose, as it may consist of different sizes and/or shapes to accommodate various types of fasteners or tethers. Said rivet is located in an area near a placket-like opening 36 of a trouser's pocket; and with said device located within said pocket; and with said bottle gripping aperture 46 being located vertically below said riveting location 64, and when said device is in a position of concealment. note FIG. 2,d.

Numeric references to location of said tensioned fastener 64 may also refer to alternative and similar means of affixing via tensioned fasteners and comprising; one piece grommets, two piece grommet sets, mandrels within finishing washers, pop rivets, and tensioned snap-on buttons or tensioned snap fasteners; of which most are metallic in composition; yet not exclusively, and not excluding any polymer plastic tensioned fastener materials.

In further reference to FIG. 2, FIG. 2,a shows said device in a same position as shown in FIG. 1, and with said bottle removed. FIG. 2,b shows a side view of said device closely similar to said same position to further clarify an invertedly looped position as in FIG. 2,a.

FIG. 2,c shows a front view of said device as it is partially retracted back into said pocket. FIG. 2,d shows a front view of said device as it is retracted completely back into said pocket, and in its initial position after said affixing 64.

Said bottle gripping element is now concealed within said pocket as shown in FIG. 2,d until a user reaches in and pulls out said bottle neck gripping aperture until it loops invertedly from its original position of concealment, and loops vertically upwards until said aperture and its surrounding substrate material protrudes outwardly from said pocket's interior.

A user then forces a bottles cap, neck, and cap stop rim through said aperture for said bottle's retention; wherein said substrate's memory retension surrounding said aperture grips and retains said bottle.

Said gripping aperture and said element's outer perimeter shape may be completely cut through said substrate by hand with most any cutting tool, or may be machine die cut in multiples for large quantities, or plastic mold injected for a dimensionally shaped form of said substrate's normally planar surface.

In assembly, said rivet type fastener is positioned through said aperture 47 and said trouser material as previously described; and is compressed to a manufacturer's satisfaction for their chosen degree of tensioning of said rivet, and for their chosen degree of permanence of said permanent affixing.

After permanently riveting said device, said device becomes at least one element of said trousers; and wherein said element is a bottle neck gripping element. Said trousers are now bottle carrying trousers.

When using said element to carry a bottle of liquid; a small child user or an adult user with no pants belt will most likely carry less liquid than others would.

In example;

-   a prepared mountain hiker or National Guard Trooper will normally     have their trousers fairly well secured with a belt, suspenders, or     other means.

A degree of said permanent affixing is relative to a user's age, strength, degree of said belt securement of trousers, or said amount of liquid being retained; and wherein said degree of permanent affixing is accordingly relative to a size and/or type of said bottle carrying trousers being manufactured.

Whereby, said degree of permanence of affixing may be predetermined at a time of said affixing; and accordingly to a manufacturer's chosen said degree of permanence necessary, and therefore said method of said affixing.

In example;

-   a tensioned snap fastener which is accomplished through a standard     riveting type method, would be a very permanent affixing to a small     child or an elderly user; and whereas a same said fastener may be     very temporary to a National Guardsman Trooper who weighed 200     pounds or more. All references to any said permanent affixing and/or     said degree of permanence of said element's affixing are therefore     relative to said type of user, said degree of trouser securement,     said volume of liquid being retained, and/or said degree of a user's     strength.
